Is your Law Office constantly rewriting diary entries?

How much time do you spend completing and copying standard court forms?

Since 1993 the new rules force legal practices to follow a rigid timetable in the preparation and execution of Sheriff Court work for civil cases. If any of the critical dates are missed, the case is effectively lost.

Suppose your secretary could enter the changed dates and immediately be able to alert you to automatically calculated new deadlines?

Your secretary's time is saved, the opportunities for mistakes are reduced and legal forms can be reprinted instantly without having to type in the data again.

To establish and maintain strict procedures to ensure deadlines are met is very complex and time consuming- time that is better spent on higher value work.

You can have all these procedures automatically dealt with in
